Maggie's Moist Lips

My dog loves chapstick. I don't know why. She goes through a tube a week. Sometimes two if we're not careful and leave them out.

On weekends, when both adults are home, we're never sure if Maggie gets fed. Neither of us wants to double feed her because she's starting to GET FAT!

Unfortunately, we don't have a checks and balance system of making sure she only gets one breakfast a day. Occasionally we remember to check in with each other to avoid the double feeding, or worse, no feeding at all.

This morning's dog diet check-in:

"Did Maggie eat yet?"

"Well, if you count chapstick...."

Reading Up Close Bad for Eyebrows

"Alex get your glasses. It's not good for your eyes to be four inches from the page."

"I'm okay."

"That's not good for your eyes. Go get your glasses."

"He's not reading with his eyes. He's reading with his eyebrows."

"It's not good for your eyeBROWS!"

"Alex, listen to your father and go get your glasses. How many times do we have to tell you? You're going to ruin your eyebrows reading like that?"
